In this episode, Michelle is joined by Megan Branham, who has led initiatives at the state and federal levels that have improved the lives of children and families, secured justice for vulnerable populations, and opened doors to community, state, and federal programs for previously underserved populations.
Megan discusses how an “ACE” (adverse childhood experience) can have long-term negative impacts on a child’s ability to engage with the language and culture of learning, as well as to successfully engage with their social world. Megan educates and inspires listeners to recognize the signs and symptoms of “ACEs,” then shares how a Speech-Language Pathologist can assist the little one and their caregivers in identifying and utilizing community supports to navigate the complex terrain toward healing.
